So here's the situation. My girl likes playing minecraft with me, and i'm happy she likes playing something with me. Shes on my ass about "Linux is stupid blah blah" but anyways. When i use the minecraft launcher, i get hit with error code 127 on the log. I have Nvidia driver version 580, Java jre 8, and the official launcher (Mainly to run curseforge). after many-a-reinstall and several attempts with java, still nothing but a glitchy UI. Im frustrated and at a loss. in the coments is my log from the launcher, what am i missing? (Im still kind of a linux noob, i only know basic sudo commands)

EDIT: How do i post my log?

Hello everyone!

This is it. The Final Text. I have assembled it using all the information, lists, technical analyses, and justified fury against invasive practices, all filtered through loyalty to Linux and "The Beast". It is long, detailed, and 100% Pro-Linux.

We live in an era of technological paradox. On one side, we have Linux – an OS built on transparency, modularity, and absolute respect for the user. On the other, we have the "AAA Gaming" dystopia on Windows, a digital prison where corporations demand the keys to your house (the Kernel) just to let you play a 20-minute match.

The official narrative repeated by Riot, Activision, or EA, that "Linux is an unsecured Wild West," is a LIE. Here is why Linux is right, and why the rest of the industry is accepting digital slavery:

1. THE "KERNEL LEVEL" LIE AND FALSE SECURITY

As excellently explained by the Connect Romania channel in their recent analysis, the major issue is Ring 0 access. Modern anti-cheats (Vanguard, Ricochet, EA Anti-Cheat) no longer run as normal programs (Ring 3); they want to be God on your PC.

• The Mortal Danger: This isn't a conspiracy theory. Marinache from Connect Romania reminds us at [00:05:56] of the Genshin Impact case. Hackers discovered they could use the game's anti-cheat driver (mhyprot2.sys), which was digitally signed, to disable the user's antivirus and install RANSOMWARE. A driver considered "legitimate" became the weapon that killed the PC.
• Instability (BSOD): He also highlights at [00:08:19] the "Kernel Security Check Failure" error. When a game injects its unstable code into the heart of your operating system, your computer becomes unstable. On Linux, kernel stability is sacred; on Windows, it is sacrificed for corporate profit.

2. CHEATERS ARE STILL THERE (ROOTKIT FOR NOTHING)

The supreme argument "we need Kernel Access to stop cheaters" is null and void.

• Hardware Cheats: Real cheaters use DMA (Direct Memory Access) or Arduino boards. As shown in the video at [00:10:14], a simple Arduino can simulate mouse input, remaining completely invisible to the anti-cheat.
• AI Cheats: At [00:10:57], we see how "Yolo AI" visually detects enemies, analyzes the screen, and reacts without ever touching the game memory.

The conclusion? You installed Chinese spyware (Vanguard) or poorly optimized garbage (EA) for nothing. Professional cheaters are immune, and you sacrificed your security and privacy for zero gain.

3. WINDOWS IS SELF-DESTRUCTING, LINUX IS BLOOMING

While we enjoy freedom, Windows users are Microsoft's lab rats. Michael Horn perfectly points out the current situation in his video about the rise of Linux:

• Updates that destroy everything: At [00:03:14], Michael shows how recent Windows 11 updates broke the Start menu, Explorer, local connections, and even basic functionality. Microsoft breaks your system month after month.
• Pure Performance: At [00:04:24], it is demonstrated that Linux is "blazing fast". Even running games through compatibility layers (Proton/Wine), they can perform better than native Windows because the OS isn't eating your resources with telemetry, ads, and forced AI (Copilot).
• The Myth of Complexity is Dead: Let's be clear: Linux is no longer the "terminal-only" monster of the past. It is user-friendly, sleek, and intuitive. You don't need to be a coder to use Mint, Pop!_OS, or Fedora. The barrier to entry is gone; the experience is now superior to the bloated mess of Windows.

4. THE BLACKLIST AND CORPORATE POLITICS

Games like Valorant, Call of Duty, or FIFA refuse to run on Linux not for technical reasons, but for political ones. They are banned in our free territory. The real solution is Server-Side AI (behavioral analysis on the server), not rootkits on the client.

5. THE MATH IS SIMPLE: THEY WILL BE FORCED TO ACCEPT US

This is the critical point. Corporations have no morality; they only have accountants. If we, the users, continue to migrate en masse to Linux, they will have no choice. They will be FORCED to accept Linux because the money follows the people.

They cannot afford to ignore an explosively growing market share. If the world moves to Linux, ignoring us becomes bankruptcy for them. Our exodus is the ultimate weapon that will force them to abandon kernel anti-cheat and come after us.

The End Goal: Native Gaming. And here is the best part: If enough of us migrate, we won't just get compatibility. We will get NATIVE LINUX GAMES. No more Proton, no more Wine, no more translation layers. Developers will build directly for Linux because that's where the players are. We are building the future where Linux is the default, not the alternative.

FINAL CONCLUSION

When you boot up Fedora, Arch, or Mint on "The Beast", you are making a statement: "My data is mine. My hardware is mine. I do not accept being treated like a presumptive criminal on my own computer."

If the price of freedom is that we cannot play Valorant... IT IS WORTH IT. Let them stay in their gilded cage with Kernel Drivers and Blue Screens. We remain free, with maximum performance, no bloatware, and our dignity intact.

LINUX HAS WON. They just haven't realized it yet.

This is just a general discussion question for all those gaming on Linux...I am a bit of a newbie having come from windows (I installed bazzite first then went to popos /plasma).

Do you guys find gaming experiences consistent inbetween gaming sessions? I'm still tinkering but my personal experience has been that games sometimes load without issue other times they might chug before restarting and it works.

I'm not saying windows gaming is better by any stretch, but I just feel loading a game on Linux can sometimes be a coin toss whether it will all click or whether I need an update or an update needs a rollback etc.

What has your experience been

Btw sorry I couldn't go back and edit the typo in the title hehe

Hi all, just recently bought a Meta 3S and I really don't know the best way to link it to my linux pc, I don't really want to install a windows partition since my drives are practically full. But I've seen some apps like ALVR, WlxOverlay-S, LVRA, and WiVRn and I'm kinda confused on what is the best to use, I'm currently checking out ALVR since that what I see everyone say to use, would It work better with a USB-C cord? or should I use one of these apps?

As the title says, playing Darktide (and once in THE FINALS) I had quite the amount of graphics driver crashes which, apparently, is caused by mesa.

Can anyone tell me which version I should downgrade from?

I'm on a 9070XT, CachyOS.

If I should share anymore info please do tell.

Tldr;

• Steam big picture 10 fps
• Not using dGPU
• 9700x CPU
• 7800XT GPU
• Believe mesa is installed correctly
• Ubuntu 24.04.3 + Wayland

Hello all, Linux noob here looking for some help. I've decided to give Linux another shot as my primary boot drive now that my Battlefield 6 phase is over. I've opted for ubuntu 24.0.4 so that I can enable secure boot easier. Something I can't seem to get working well is Big Picture Mode, and it's an odd issue. It runs at about 10FPS, and when checking the hardware settings, it shows my CPU as the video card when it should (and in every other game) show the 7800XT I have installed as a dedicated GPU. I've seen a few threads about this online, but haven't been able to find a solution.

I use Linux for servers sometimes, but not usually as a desktop OS. So please bare with me if I'm misunderstanding something.

I would be inclined to think that this is a driver issue, but based on my research I believe I have done everything correct. Any idea what may be causing this? Or is it not a great feature on Linux?

Thank you in advance.

Asking cuz, I got Linux Mint recently on my brand new Alienware Aurora 16. Complete disaster. The games run like kaka, & are busted. The games will literally freeze the laptop, requiring me to literally just shut it down. Literally tried everything. I'm just down with mint man. Is there any other distro where I won't have to jump through so many hoops just to game?

To anyone coming to this sub looking as I did to get away from Windows and get on a Linux desktop, don't. Just wait for the Steam Machine. Holy fuck, the bullshit and countless incorrect reddit threads I've gone through in the past 2 days. 20 different distros, protons, drivers, fuck this. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm happy to go back to windows for now.

It doesnt matter ifI run it native or via proton

compatibility doesnt work either

Hey Guys,

I have moved to Ubuntu from Windows for about a month. I don't play a lot of Ray Tracing included games and don't enjoy RT that much (except in CP2077, that game without RT is unimaginable for me). Yesterday, I installed Resident Evil4 Remake from Steam and noticed there is no RT or DLSS settings in the graphics menu. I was wondering, why aren't they available on RE4R, but available in CP2077?

Is something missing from my system or is it a developer issue?

I have an Nvidia 4060 card and I had no issues in this past month on my system gaming-wise. This is the only thing that makes me wonder, and there are no credible info about on the web.

So I've been trying to reverse engineer Tryx Panorama SE ARGB 360 since using vm's like WinBoat didn't work for me (for some reason it didn't detect my aio), virt-manager didn't work either. Obviously I don't wanna waste $240 with a default video on the display, so I guess we'd have to "reverse engineer" it (well dual boot is an option, but who wants to reboot a pc just to change the display).

To anyone interested: https://github.com/fadli0029/reed-tpse

Below is a pretty sick video on the AIO 😎

Anyone have any solutions? I have tried running Tweaks in Steam on Proton and Bottles and it can't find the Mass Effect exes. I tried ME modder also.

Question that came up as I was setting up Faugus (great launcher!): what is the correct way for games from the same launcher to run on their own Wine prefixes?

Example with Battle.net

1. One prefix for Battle.net launcher that has all games installed, new prefixes that direct to the game's .exe in the Battle.net prefix
2. A prefix per game with Battle.net launcher and a single game installed in each

Both *seem* to work, but the second one is far more cumbersome

Hey, I’m planning to buy a Ryzen 5 5600 paired with an Intel Arc B580 and run it on Linux (Arch + KDE).

I mainly play CS2, some AAA games, and other older games

Before I pull the trigger, I just wanted to ask how this combo is on Linux in terms of:

Gaming performance

Driver support / stability (especially Arc)

Any known issues or “gotchas”

Would appreciate any advice or alternatives in a similar price range.
